Initially wanted to make some synthwave, but turned to a more trancy direction which somehow went acidic in the middle. Nothing wrong with that I suppose - we're doing this for fun, right?

When inspecting the raw mix, I noticed a 15.7kHz (-72dB) signal almost for the entire track. It was in all of the hardware recordings, so I dig a little deeper. I don't have a CRT here, at least not that I know of. Recording the audio interface plus mixer gave me the noise floor, then I unmuted my running gear one by one. And even though the piece that I suspected did some heavy ground noise and then some on multiple Bands, it did most of it around 14.3kHz.

Instead of re-recording, I just dynEQed plus notched that frequency, so the younger folks won't be annoyed - I'm seemingly too old to hear that.

The siren-ish lead was a last minute addition as the track sounded still a bit bland.

Just after uploading I checked my gear again, and now I could reproduce 15.7 kHz at -75dB with the device I initially suspected - it just needed to be powered on long enough. Initial measurement was after 2-3 hours, the second one after roughly 12 hours. Guess, next time I intend use it, I'll have a stopwatch nearby.

Wrote this song on my friends coffee table while on my Canadian journey. Short and sweet and absolutely no edits were preformed so sorry for the jack levels. I did not want to take to much time away from friends and family while working on this. Even so I still feel like it captures this special moment in time.

Programmed and preformed on an OP-XY. Recorded live into Ableton.

Welcome to the Jazz Dimension.

We've been expecting you. Please, have a seat, grab a drink and make yourself comfortable.

It's safe to say I'm pretty in love with this sonic setting I've been playing with, this week is no different. This is an Andalusian cadence in C minor (Cm, Bb, Ab, Gm) then moved up a forth to use the same cadence down from F (Fm, Eb, D, Cm). Aside from the usual bass, drums, and vibraphone, I added guitar to the mix after agonizing over how to bring it in appropriately. I recorded a bunch of different jazzy lines but they all felt like they were serving my ego and not the song so I scrapped them and went with something simple.

Happy week 14!

Something I came up with on Guitar and converted to Piano, a song about loving someone unconditionally, a little rough round the edges, would love to edit more but have no time, enjoy :)

I wish I had more time to dedicate to this.

I didn't finish it properly.

It is good enough for a WB.

Weekly Poem

The title of this song comes from a wrestling promo from a guy named “Jungle Boy” Jack Perry. He’s getting beaten up by this newer, cooler guy and just says calmly “they used to dance for me too”.

So it made me want to write a meditation on aging and accepting there will always be younger, sexier people, and it’s time to make peace with who we are.

13 minutes of dark droning. Odessa and Warp core run through Erica Synths Black Reverb.

Was almost done with what I actually wanted to do and suddenly pivoted for reasons I can’t define.
